Τhe old,
one-arched stone bridge of Palaeikarya
was built around 1525, and has a length of 26 metres, an arc opening of 19
metres and a height from the river bed 10 metres. Behind it is a 12 metre high
waterfall, with the river continuing after the bridge to a lesser waterfall 2
metres high. The river that passes through the spot is Palaiokaritis and if we
continue the journey downstream we reach the gorge of Palieokarya where there
is still a functioning watermill where one can watch flour being milled.

The bridge of
Palaiokarya joined Thessaly to Epirus and was a busy route at that time. Now it
is in a deserted spot and is surrounded by great natural beauty. The bridge
frames steep, high rocks with much low-lying vegetation and trees. A large
variety of herbs and rare wildflowers grows in the area in Spring and Summer.
There is also a great number of animals and birds in the forest around the old
bridge.

Welcome to Nicholas V's Blog on Blogger

I have been blogging daily on this platform for several years now. It is surprising that I have persisted as the world is changing and "microblogging" is now the norm. I blog to amuse myself, make comment on current affairs, externalise some of my creativity, keep notes on things that interest me, learn something new and to surprise myself with things that I discover about this wonderful, and sometimes crazy, world we live in.

I sometimes get the impression that I am on a soapbox delivering a monologue, so your comments are welcome.
